If you lose interest in a carried item, you can drop it on the ground. Examples: > drop bottle > drop all (drops everything you are carrying) Dropping objects in a certain location in Bree is a good way to get rid of unwanted things permanently.
You can also use the "drop" command to try to shake off an unwanted follower: > drop Clint Clint stops following you.
or "drop everyone" to try to shake off everyone:
> drop everyone Pippin stops following you. Merry stops following you.
